Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 498 Getting Better
When I walked out of the cave, a wave of heat hit me in the face, but my body seemed to have gotten used to it, so it wasn't a big deal.
After standing for a while, Lin Qianxing felt a burning sensation coming from his left foot. On his left foot was a special shoe woven with vines. Although it was well-made, it was already somewhat damaged.
This made him realize that he might have to unlock new shoe blueprints sooner rather than later.
Lin Qianxing leaned against the cave and looked around.
There is a bright blue moon in the sky. Its light is not particularly bright, but with its light, Lin Qianxing can still see the surrounding scenery clearly.
This seems to be a plain.
There are some low, thorny shrubs growing outside. The leaves of these shrubs are not green, but a very special brown, and they are faintly reflective.
Lin Qianxing guessed that perhaps these plants had undergone these changes due to the influence of the sun.
After observing for a while, Lin Qianxing found the direction he came from.
After estimating the distance in his mind, Lin Qianxing realized that he would not be able to go back in a short time.
So what he had to do now was to collect food.
Lin Qianxing leaned on his stone crutch and walked slowly towards the bushes.
There are some small reflective fruits on these bushes. Lin Qianxing guessed that these should be the starting resources in the game.
Even if it is a Rubik's Cube game, it won't be a complete dead end that makes you unable to play.
The distance from the cave entrance to the bushes was not too far, only about two hundred meters at most, but Lin Qianxing still limped for nearly a quarter of an hour before arriving.
Firstly, his current physical strength is really not good. Secondly, Lin Qianxing was observing his surroundings while walking. He looked around almost every step he took. This was his body's instinct, telling him to do so to ensure safety.
In fact, this was true. Just as Lin Qianxing approached the bushes, he saw a white figure rushing out from them not far away, and then attacked him directly.
Solo Solo~!
Lin Qianxing looked closely and found that it was an animal with white scales.
The White-Scaled Beast is an omnivorous odd-toed ungulate with a large population in this world.
The white scales are hard and heat-resistant and can reflect a large amount of sunlight, locking in the water in the body, allowing it to move for a period of time during the day. The digestive ability is extremely strong and when necessary, it can even eat soil to survive for a period of time.
The largest can grow to over 500 kilograms and is a common meat in Yeliu City.
Even now, some people are trying to domesticate and raise them.
This time, Lin Qianxing followed the team out because he accidentally strayed too far from the team while chasing the white-scaled beast, and was injured by the ferocious beast.
The white-scaled beast that rushed towards Lin Qianxing looked to be about 100 pounds and was running very fast. However, Lin Qianxing stood still in the face of its attack and did not even think of dodging.
Although he couldn't avoid it.
Just when the white-scaled beast was about five meters away from Lin Qianxing, Lin Qianxing suddenly raised his left hand.
Boom~!
A stone platform made up of four huge square stones appeared in the void, then fell from the sky and landed directly on the white-scaled beast, flattening it in an instant.
This is one of the attack methods developed by Lin Qianxing.
He used four square stones to randomly piece together, made a giant stone platform, and then recorded the drawings.
At the critical moment, the stone platform can be directly created out of thin air according to the blueprint, and then fall from the sky to hit people.
However, after Lin Qianxing tried , he found that the distance of creating items was also limited by his own spiritual attributes, and it would not work if the distance exceeded five meters.
So Lin Qianxing’s attack distance is only five meters at present.
But five meters is enough .
The best proof is that the white-scaled beast was crushed to death before it could even react.
Lin Qianxing stretched out his hand, and a stone draft appeared in his palm.
Then he walked forward and knocked on the stone platform.
With the help of his fine manuscript, Lin Qianxing quickly transformed the stone platform into four square stones and returned them to the material warehouse.
Then Lin Qianxing looked at the white-scaled beast below.
Most of his body had been pressed into the soil, his entire body was flattened, and his internal organs were squeezed out of his mouth and anus, emitting a foul odor.
But when Lin Qianxing saw it, he felt like he had seen a savior.
With this thing, it should be easy for him to survive ten days.
Speaking of which, according to the original game situation, this thing should require players to fight with wits and courage, and it should take a certain amount of time to solve it. However, he used cheats and was killed instantly, which took away a lot of the "fun" of the game.
With a thought, Lin Qianxing put the corpse of the white-scaled beast into the material space, then came to the bush and began to pick the fruits there.
These fruits look like longans, with a very strong woody texture and some thorns on the skin. If it were an ordinary person, it would be difficult to handle them.
But Lin Qianxing had a hand of divine skill, so he was not afraid of being pricked when he held it in his hand.
[Unnamed Fruit [White Ordinary (Ordinary)]: A very bitter fruit, but it stores a lot of water.]
With a slight pinch, Lin Qianxing peeled off the outer shell, revealing the flesh inside.
Lin Qianxing, who was already extremely hungry, threw it into his mouth.
Quite bitter, but very moist.
No wonder the white-scaled beast rushed over with a life-threatening attitude when it saw him approaching.
In this world, water is an extremely precious thing.
After all, when the sun gets hotter, a lot of water evaporates and the rivers are basically dry.
Nowadays, water is basically stored only underground.
This plant can store so much water. Even though it looks so ugly and tastes bitter, it is extremely precious.
Lin Qianxing quickly moved his hands through the thorns and soon picked a large number of fruits.
Then he set his sights on the bushes themselves.
Then Lin Qianxing took out the stone knife he had made earlier and chopped directly at it.
With one cut, cracks appeared on the bushes.
Lin Qianxing raised his eyebrows and continued to cut.
After more than a dozen cuts, Lin Qianxing obtained a piece of shrub material and some shrub leaves.
Lin Qianxing looked at the small wooden block floating in his palm with a strange expression and asked, "Is this also possible?"
Obviously, the thickest of those bushes was only as thick as a child's arm, but now he had rolled them into a square piece of wood that was one meter long, wide and high.
Lin Qianxing put it into the material warehouse and continued to work on the tree.
Before coming out, he reserved four square spaces, which were just the right size for placing these shrub materials.
Soon, Lin Qianxing's material warehouse was full. He heard the howling of beasts outside and did not dare to stay any longer. He turned around and returned to the cave.
On his way back, Lin Qianxing was thinking that his speed was too slow and maybe he could consider using a stone cart or a wooden cart.
It looks like this area is a flat land, so it should be possible to drive on it.
It's just that the shock absorption is not good enough, so I guess it will be a bit painful.
After returning to the cave, Lin Qianxing immediately closed the cave entrance, leaving only a small gap for air circulation.
Then he went deep into the cave, took out the fruits he had picked earlier, began to peel them and eat them.
It’s hard to describe the taste of this berry, but the large amount of water and a little bit of pulp it contains made Lin Qianxing feel relieved.
After eating some fruits, Lin Qianxing leaned against the mountain wall to rest.
Although the workload seemed light this time, it was quite strenuous for a disabled patient like him.
After resting for about half an hour, Lin Qianxing felt that he had a little more strength back in his body, so he started a new activity.
He took out the stone and made a small hoe with his hands.
Then just start digging the ground with the hoe.
There was stone beneath him, but it wasn't entirely stone, there was also some soil mixed in.
Lin Qianxing planned to clear out a room here to dissect the white-scaled beast that he had killed before.
As for why it is not in the original place.
The main reason was that Lin Qianxing was afraid that the smell was too strong and would attract strange beasts.
If he was underground, there would be a barrier and the smell would not be so obvious.
With the help of the Hand of God, Lin Qianxing quickly opened up a space of about 20 cubic meters underground.
This space is more than enough for him to deal with the white-scaled beast.
Lin Qianxing raised his hand and used two stones to turn them into a stone platform. Then he took out the white-scaled beast from the material warehouse and placed it on it.
Immediately, Lin Qianxing began to dissect it with a stone knife.
The scales of the white-scaled beast were extremely hard, but with the help of Lin Qianxing's divine craftsmanship, the stone knife broke it in just a few strokes, allowing Lin Qianxing to successfully peel off the scales and cut off the entire skin.
When Lin Qianxing cut off the skin, the entire skin shrank instantly and turned into a miniature piece of fur floating in the air.
Lin Qianxing reached out and took it in his palm, and found that the moisture in this thing had been dried out, and he didn't need to process it again.
"It's really convenient." Lin Qianxing exclaimed.
Then he started to process the meat of the white-scaled beast.
Much of the meat on the white-scaled beast was crushed, but it did not prevent Lin Qianxing from eating it.
After Lin Qianxing cut the pieces of meat, they automatically shrank and turned into materials just like the skin.
The same goes for those bones.
Lin Qianxing also processed the internal organs a little.
In the end, only a pile of dirty things was left. Lin Qianxing solved the problem by simply digging a hole and filling it with stones.
After doing all this, Lin Qianxing began to think about how to eat the meat.
It’s not impossible to eat it raw.
But now he can still hold on, so he doesn't have to go to that extent.
How about making a fire and roasting it?
Drilling wood to make fire?
That thing seems to be quite strenuous?
Although he thought so, Lin Qianxing felt that he could still give it a try.
He dug out a kitchen space near the cave entrance that allowed air to enter, and made a stone stove. He then used a stone knife to carve a wooden stick, got some wood chips and strips as fire starters, and then began to rub them on the wooden board.
The indestructible and dexterous properties of the Heavenly Hand came into play at this time.
Lin Qianxing rubbed it for a while and then saw smoke. He put sawdust on it, blew gently a few times, and a flame rose.
Then Lin Qianxing placed the wooden sticks on top little by little and added firewood. Soon, a fierce flame appeared in the stone stove.
Lin Qianxing took out a piece of meat, pierced it with a stone stick and started roasting it directly.
Not long after, Lin Qianxing got a piece of slightly burnt cooked meat.
Lin Qianxing didn't care whether it was burnt or not, he just started to eat it.
As the food entered his mouth, a hint of satisfaction appeared on his face.
"It's getting better!" Lin Qianxing said with emotion.
